... the conventional argument that sufficiently long time is able to bring about any highly improbable event at some time or another. He then described the currently quite widely, if not generally, held view that life did begin in some remote past event (generally assumed to be around a billion or two billion years ago) possibly as a result of electrical discharge in a rare but suitable right mixture' under right conditions'. This argument harks back to experiments of Miller and Urey [1959], in which amino acids were produced by an electrical discharge in methane, water vapor, ammonia and hydrogen. Even the initial right condition' for formation of amino acids would necessarily have had ...

... , and Andy Ingersoll of the California Institute of Technology. Io's aurorae, like those on Earth, are caused by the impact of electrons on atmospheric gasses. Io is bathed by a swarm of charged particles that are trapped by Jupiter's magnetic field, similar to the Van Allen radiation belts surrounding our own planet. In addition, a powerful electric current flows from Io to the poles of Jupiter, caused by an enormous electrical potential some 400,000 volts generated by the motion of the jovian magnetic field past Io. When these electrons collide with the gasses in Io's atmosphere, they set off a dazzling light show of red, green and blue emissions bright enough to be visible ...

... AEON: A Journal of Myth and Science, in which his articles have regularly appeared. More recently he became a regular contributor to the electronic newsletter THOTH, published approximately every week to ten days. Wallace Thornhill is a physicist and a computer systems engineer, whose papers on the youthful Venus, the origin of chondritic meteorites, and the electrical character of the solar system have gained much recent attention in catastrophist circles. His most recent work has focused on sinuous rilles of the Moon, Venus, Mars, the Moons of Mars, and the moons of the gas giants. He has shown these rilles to be the scars from massive electrical dischargesÐa finding that could well produce one ...

... tore through the shallow drainage area, creating the canyon. [4 ] REVERSE FLOW THEORY Others suspect that the Colorado River cut the canyon when it flowed in the opposite direction from today. Proponents of this theory cite the present-day tributaries, which feed into the Colorado at an angle that supports the river's former flow. WAL THORNHILL adds the ELECTRIC UNIVERSE THEORY: The simplest explanation is that the Grand Canyon was created in an event like that which created a similar but much grander series of canyons on Mars. That is, an interplanetary electric discharge. The stubby tributaries which join the main canyon at nearly 90 degrees are a strong indication that this is so. Erosion by a ...
186. Conclusion (Carl Sagan & Immanuel Velikovsky) [Books]
... . I wished for several years that a check could be made on Jupiter. I took the opportunity of my lecture before the Graduate College Forum of Princeton University on October 14, 1953, and after presenting many reasons for believing that the members of the solar system-the sun, the planets, the satellites, the comets, the meteorites-are not electrically or magnetically neutral, made the following statement: In Jupiter and its moons we have a system not unlike the solar family. The planet is cold, yet its gases are in motion. It appears probable to me that it sends out radio noises as do the sun and the stars. I suggest that this be investigated. ' ...

... From: Pensée Vol. 4 No 3: (Summer 1974) "Immanuel Velikovsky Reconsidered VIII" Home | Issue Contents Electrical Discharges and the Transmutation of Elements Explaining the radioactivity at Aristarchus In his March 14, 1967 memorandum to the Space Board of the National Academy of Sciences, Velikovsky wrote: "Because of the intensity and multiplicity of the interplanetary bolts to which the Moon was subjected only 27 and 35 centuries ago (as described in Worlds in Collision) radioactivity must still be present on the surface of the Moon in quantity damaging to unprotected man or animal and by far exceeding any exposure regarded as safe." This advance claim of strong radioactivity on the lunar surface ...
... correcting the effect: How does the Earth get started up again, rotating at approximately the same rate of spin? The Earth cannot do it by itself, because of the law of conservation of angular momentum. ' "At that time, [1974] I suggested this: If the deceleration were due to a transitory increase in the electrical charge of the Earth, then the resumption of a normal' rate of spin might well be laid to a subsequent loss, or drainoff, of the excess charge. The phenomenon would be entirely in keeping with, and indeed attributable to, constraints imposed by the law of conservation of angular momentum. "One of Velikovsky's earliest and ...

... been submitted to the journal Physical Review Letters. "It is incredibly exciting to see such intriguing results coming out of our first data analysis," says the collaboration's UK spokesman, David Wark of the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory and Sussex University, "and there is so much more to come." Neutrinos are elementary particles of matter with no electric charge and very little mass. They only interact weakly with matter, which makes them very difficult to detect. Indeed, the SNO experiment detects a mere 10 or so solar neutrinos per day. Electron neutrinos are produced in the Sun's core when boron-8 nuclei undergo beta decay: the Sun is not thought to produce muon or tau neutrinos ...

... , the principle of a plasma discharge, and he provided a dramatic illustration as to the manner in which such a discharge will account for the unique ancient descriptions of the "Radiant Venus," with streamers radiating in all directions [see photograph above]. Wal proposed that Venus was the focus of such a discharge, due to the electrical interactions with other bodies in the hypothesized configuration. This would mean that what I have called the "radiance" of Venus was not due so much to illumination of material from the Sun, but to the luminosity of the discharge itself. Venus and the surrounding comet-like streamers would appear as an effusion of light (the "life, ...
